Summary/Abstract: The document discusses the utilization of archival materials from the State District Archive in Pardubice for studying the history of Jewish settlement in the region. It highlights the 2012 exhibition "Under the Star of David," which commemorated the 70th anniversary of Jewish transports to Terezín. The exhibition featured contributions from over 20 institutions and individuals, showcasing documents, photographs, and personal items. The text details the archival sources used, including records from Jewish schools, religious communities, and various local organizations. It also emphasizes the importance of preserving Jewish heritage and the challenges faced in documenting the community's history due to the loss of many original records. The document concludes with reflections on the ongoing efforts to create databases and catalog archival materials to facilitate future research.
